I also picked this one up in the 90%.

I estimate this to be a solid G4 possibly G6. You can see a couple letters in LIBERTY but the details in the face and leaves is pretty weak. IGWT and 1907 is pretty strong.

The reverse confuses me a little bit. It seems like the shied has much more definition than the eagle itself. I thought it was supposed to be the opposite? There is some dirt on the A in STATES

Looks strong enough to go VG-8.
Rest in Peace

Again, nice and original. I think it has a good shot at VG, with G-6 at minimum.

G-6, might slide to VG-8 because some letters on the headband are just visible.

Is it cheating that I go through all these pictures while looking through the ANA Grading Standards book? LOL

Is that a normal wear pattern on the reverse? I would have thought the shield should have been more worn compared to the eagle.

Looks solid for VG-8 and it appears original and problem-free. Common date, but not bad!
